UnionPay, a global payment brand, has partnered with AXS, Singapore’s payment solutions provider, to offer convenient and secure bill payment services through the UnionPay App for Mainland China residents living in Singapore.

Through this collaboration, over 500 million registered UnionPay App users who are using UnionPay cards issued in Mainland China can use the AXS payment tile in the UnionPay App to pay for all primary household and educational bills, along with top-ups and eServices provided by Singapore organisations.

Chin Mun Chung, CEO of AXS Services, said, “This partnership with UnionPay reflects our commitment to enhancing financial convenience for users, regardless of their location. By integrating UnionPay’s widely downloaded UnionPay App with AXS’s trusted payment platform, we are empowering Chinese nationals to manage essential bill payments in Singapore seamlessly and securely. This collaboration is a testament to our ongoing efforts to provide innovative solutions that cater to the needs of a global user base.”

Carine Low, Singapore Country Manager of UnionPay International, said: “AXS is the most commonly used fast and secure bill payment platform in Singapore.

I have no doubt that the UnionPay App users will find convenience in paying for bills instantly with AXS.”

This collaboration between UnionPay and AXS will bring greater convenience for Mainland China UnionPay cardholders who consolidate their bills and make payments through the AXS tile in the UnionPay App.
